Ballerina AWS Marketplace Metering connector

AWS Marketplace Metering Service is a usage and billing service that allows AWS Marketplace sellers to report the usage of their products for billing purposes. This service supports both software-as-a-service (SaaS) products and metering products sold through AWS Marketplace.

The ballerinax/aws.marketplace.mpm package provides APIs to interact with the AWS Marketplace Metering Service, enabling developers to submit usage records, batch meter usage data, and manage metering-related tasks programmatically.
